2. Reason for the announcement
FHI treats shareholder interests as a vital management issue and applies a results-linked concept that considers each fiscal year’s earnings, investment plans, business environments, is committed to sustained dividend payment. Moreover, dividend payments for each fiscal year are determined with consideration of various circumstances predicated on a 20–40% standard range for the consolidated dividend payout ratio.
It is proposed to distribute a year-end dividend of ¥37.0 per share for the current fiscal year, which is ¥6.0 higher than the previous projection. As a result, including the interim dividend of ¥31.0 per share already distributed, this raises the per-share dividend for the full fiscal year by ¥15.0 compared with the previous fiscal year to ¥68.0.
